General Information Moselle & Rhine

Moselle cycle track

"There's always time for a pint", is the motto of the Moselans, who enjoy the light wine with leisure. Contemplative wine-growing villages, romantic half-timber houses and extended vineyard terraces are characterizing the valley of the Moselle. The Calmont is the steepest vineyard in Europe. A range of castles and monasteries accompany the river on his journey. The Romans left many traces. Monumental constructions like amphitheaters, palaces, bridges and aqueducts bear witness to this time. Later the Trier archbishops adopt the reign in the country. A nice starting point for the tour is Metz in the East of France; many vacationers choose Trier, the oldest city of Germany. The endpoint of the cycle tour is mostly Koblenz, where the Moselle finally flows into the Rhine.
